As the day progressed it was time to think about what he was going to be having for dinner - well, it's his birthday and all that, so he can have anything he likes!

Now at this point you're probably thinking the multi-millionaire would have some caviar, maybe some foie gras, and would wash it all down with a bottle of your finest bubbly, eh barkeep?

But my goodness, would you be wrong.

Instead he had a bit of gammon. Nice. Some chips. Well, why not? And some beans. Sounds good to me. Oh, and mushy peas spooned on top of the beans, a heap of coleslaw, two rings of pineapple and a fried egg slapped on top.

What on earth is that!? (Image: David Beckham/Instagram)

After dinner Beckham enjoyed a bit of birthday cake and washed it all down with a nice glass of white wine - not that bubbly we discussed then.

To end his long day the now 42-year-old kicked back with some whiskey and watched Real Madrid in the semi-final of their Champions League clash with rivals Atletico. And they won 3-0. So it wasn't all bad, eh?
